The NCAA has permanently ruled Tennessee defensive tackle Maurice Couch, who has been ruled ineligible since the third week of the season by Tennessee’s compliance office, ineligible for the remainder of the season.

Jon, if they came to this conclusion that mean they’ve found Couch to be guilty (don’t even think he denied it) and have ruled him out forever does that mean that the investigation with Couch is over??

I think the NCAA is so inconsistent in their punishment of players (yes, Johnny Manziel, I’m including you). How can they do this to UT’s player and let aTm’s Johnny basically and simply walk away. SMH!!!

Why would he be laughing to the bank? Laughing as the Vols left Bryant-Denny maybe, but probably not to the bank. He borrowed money and provided proof he paid it back, and none of these players have done the same thing. These are not identical infractions. Different rules have different punishments. Stop making it something that it isn’t.
